I can find the request string of 'GET' by 'getQueryString()' method of httpRequest class, but where can find it of 'POST'?

I am not even sure if that can be done for POST. You may just have to use GET as the "action" of your form. getQueryString() is available only for a GET request.

I agree with Bosun, when you POST there is no 'QueryString'.
Query String is that part of the http request which follows the servlet/jsp path and the '?'. In case of POST there is not such string.

You can get the entire POSTed raw data as a binary InputStream by calling the getInputStream method in the ServletRequest interface, or as a BufferedReader by calling getReader.
I think you may have to do this without calling any of the getParameter methods, but try it and see.
